I really have not made many Christmas cards, i think this is my second one, i must get my self motivated and do more !

I used a cracker template for this one, covered with papers, stamped some little Christmas trees addd glitter stickles, and a gem on the top of tree added these white poinsettia's which are from my stash oh and a little ding a long bell!!

Hello well i hope you are reading this as i did schedule this post and sometimes Mr blogger decides to play things his way!! i will be on my way back from Amsterdam this morning, after a couple of days away with hubby on the DFDS ferries, we left on Tuesday on my Birthday so i am sure we will have had a good time.

Now to days card is for C.R.A.F.T. challenge, the theme is "shaped card" other than a square. or rectangle.

I did not have any template for shape card so i used a cd for the circle and a round punch for the half circles or the outer sides.
